Looks like he needs his vitamins...and looks like he has enough excitement running through him and will decapitate the chemist holding them...either that, or will just ask the chemist first to flop it out for him for a quick intake, them lob off his head saying 'merry xmas, and thanks for the vitamins'.

There's no game idea there, but based off the drawing the only thing "anti-casual" about it is the knife. The style of the character seems extremely casual to me.

Hey Justin,

That is the closest to what my impression was when I drew this character. The character is "casual" if you will, but the weapon is not.

OK, so it looks like a lumber jack to you. I originally thought that he's a fisherman but maybe a lumber jack is the thing. If there's a two player mode then the "Luigi" could be a fisherman. Hmmm... Lumber jacks imply forest scenery...

Hehe, I'm thinking of a concept that would look like a casual game but then it wouldn't be that in the end. Maybe I'm just barking up the wrong tree. However, it's what came to my mind the moment I drew this.

Yes! Skyhawk suggested a lumber jack and now we have soundguru's vitamin theme... So there's vitamin power-ups in the forest. Maybe a wooden chemist's booth occasionally where he pauses to buy bigger knifes/axes and medicine for healing.

Well.

Nuns. His enemies are nuns.

The lumberjack is also a transvestite. You can equip women's clothing.

I guess we are improvising. Transvestite possibility is definitely in. However, I wouldn't slash nuns to death. Rather, I see the nuns as the society ruling the forest. They tell Jack to be a "good boy".
